Manuscript Features
The beginning of text is missing even if the foliation starts with the figure "1". So we can guess that the foliation was added later. The first sub-colophon of the text on fol. 2v informs the ending of the 30th taraṅga (chapter). So we can assume that the other twenty nine taraṅgas are missing.
